Gameplay:

Your miner digs horizontal and vertical tunnels through the maze, starting with at least one pre-existing tunnel. Scattered throughout the labyrinth are emeralds (often in clusters), power-ups, and monsters. Digging under stones causes them to fall after a short delay, crushing anything below. Stones can be pushed horizontally in vertical tunnels. Falling stones and power-ups eliminate monsters, but also pose a threat to the miner. The miner wields bombs to clear areas and destroy enemies. This game is a fresh take on the classic retro game, Digger.

Controls:

• On-screen controls to direct the miner.
• Double-tap to activate bombs.
